Lyrics:

                                                  
BEHIND  THE  PICKET  FENCE

(c) Words and Music:  Billie Temple / Donna Aylor / Susie Marshall

A red brick house on a manicured hill
Took more than two years to build
White columns trimmed with the shutters green
From the road it looks to be the perfect dream

Inside those walls behind the blinds
Live two little babies with hurt in their eyes 
And it’s sad to see the evidence
No all’s not well behind the picket fence

CHORUS:
WHAT YOU SEE IS AN ILLUSION
INSIDE THERE’S SUCH CONFUSION
AND BROKEN HEARTS
THE FOUNDATION IS CRUMBLNG
CAN’T YOU HEAR THE RUMBLING
THE SOUND OF A FAMILY FALLING APART

Daddy packed his bags and walked out the door
Said he didn’t wanna love there no more
Now Momma’s got too many bills to pay
And another baby’s on the way

I’ve seen the kids out in the yard
Their faces show that times are hard
And in their eyes it don’t make sense
Why it all fell apart behind the picket fence

REPEAT CHORUS

Looking in the window through the pain
Well it’s hard to say just who’s to blame
But I’ve seen enough in just one glance
No all’s not well behind the picket fence
 
Yeah  I’ve been inside , seen the evidence
No all’s not well behind the picket fence
